CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application is a continuation of International Patent Application No. PCT/EP02/10460, filed Sep. 18, 2002 designating the United States of America, and published in German as WO 03/024444, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Priority is claimed based on Federal Republic of Germany Patent Application No. DE 101 46 275.1, filed Sep. 18, 2001.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The invention relates to the use of a combination of compounds of group A, in particular opioids, and compounds of group B, in particular anti-muscarine agents and other substances which have a predominantly peripheral action, for the preparation of a medicament for treatment of an increased urge to urinate or urinary incontinence and to corresponding medicaments and methods for treatment of an increased urge to urinate or urinary incontinence.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Urinary incontinence is the involuntary discharge of urine. This occurs in an uncontrolled manner when the pressure within the urinary bladder exceeds the pressure needed to close the ureter. Causes can be, on the one hand, an increased internal pressure in the bladder (e.g., due to detrusor instability) with the consequence of urgency incontinence, and, on the other, a reduced sphincter pressure (e.g., following giving birth or surgical interventions) with the consequence of stress incontinence. The detrusor is the coarsely bundled multilayered bladder wall musculature, contraction of which leads to voiding of urine, and the sphincter is the closing muscle of the urethra. Mixed forms of these types of incontinence and so-called overflow incontinence or reflex incontinence (e.g., following damage to the spinal cord) occur. Thus, for example, urinary incontinence, an urge to urinate and an increased frequency of micturition are all possible symptoms of benign prostate hyperplasia. Further details of this complex are to be found in Chutka, D. S. and Takahashi, P. Y., 1998, Drugs 560: 587-595.

[0004] The urge to urinate is the state, aimed at voiding of urine (micturition), of increased bladder muscle tension as the bladder capacity is approached (or exceeded). This tension acts here as a stimulus to micturition. An increased urge to urinate is understood here in particular as the occurrence of premature or an increased and sometimes even painful urge to urinate up to so-called strangury. This consequently leads to a significantly more frequent micturition. Causes can be, inter alia, inflammations of the urinary bladder and neurogenic bladder disorders, and also bladder tuberculosis. However, not all the causes have yet been clarified.

[0005] An increased urge to urinate and also urinary incontinence are perceived as extremely unpleasant and there is a clear need among persons affected by these indications to achieve an improvement which is as long-term as possible.

[0006] An increased urge to urinate and in particular urinary incontinence are conventionally treated with medicaments using substances which are involved in the reflexes of the lower urinary tract (Wein, A. J., 1998, Urology 51 (Suppl. 21): 43-47). These are usually medicaments which have an inhibiting action on the detrusor muscle, which is responsible for the internal pressure in the bladder. These medicaments are, e.g., parasympatholytics, such as oxybutynin, propiverine or tolterodine, tricyclic antidepressants, such as imipramine, or muscle relaxants, such as flavoxate. Other medicaments, which in particular increase the resistance of the urethra or of the neck of the bladder, show affinities for α-adrenoreceptors, such as ephedrine, for β-adrenoreceptors, such as clenbutarol, or are hormones, such as oestradiol.

[0007] The review article by K. E. Andersson et al. “The pharmacological treatment of urinary incontinence”, BJU International (1999), 84, 923-947 gives an accurate insight here into the therapeutics and treatment methods used, in particular in respect of anti-muscarine agents and other substances having a peripheral action.

[0008] Certain diarylmethylpiperazines and -piperidines are also described for this indication in WO 93/15062. For tramadol also a positive effect on bladder function has been demonstrated in a rat model of rhythmic bladder contractions (Nippon-Shinyaku, WO 98/46216). There are furthermore investigations for characterization of the opioid side effect of urinary retention in the literature, from which some indications of the influencing of bladder functions by weak opioids, such as diphenoxylate (Fowler et al., 1987 J. Urol 138:735-738) and meperidine (Doyle and Briscoe, 1976 Br J Urol 48:329-335), by mixed opioid agonists/antagonists, such as buprenorphine (Malinovsky et al., 1998 Anesth Analg 87:456-461; Drenger and Magora, 1989 Anesth Analg 69:348-353), pentazocine (Shimizu et al. (2000) Br. J. Pharmacol. 131 (3): 610-616) and nalbuphine (Malinovsky et al., 1998, loc. cit.), and by potent opioids, such as morphine ((Malinovsky et al., 1998 loc. cit.; Kontani and Kawabata, (1988); Jpn J Pharmacol. Sep;48(1):31) and fentanyl (Malinovsky et al., 1998 loc. cit.) result. Nevertheless, these investigations were usually carried out in analgesically active concentrations.

[0009] In the case of the indications in question here, it should be remembered that it is in general a matter of very long-term uses of medicaments and, in contrast to many situations where analgesics are employed, those affected are faced with a situation which is very unpleasant but not intolerable. It is therefore to be ensured here—even more so than with analgesics—that side effects are avoided if the person affected does not want to exchange one evil for another. Also, analgesic actions are also largely undesirable during permanent treatment of urinary incontinence.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0010] The object of the present invention was therefore to provide substances or substance combinations which are helpful for treatment of an increased urge to urinate or urinary incontinence and, at the active doses, preferably at the same time show fewer side effects and/or analgesic actions than known from the prior art, in particular show a synergistic effect for treatment of urinary incontinence.

[0011] It has now been found, surprisingly, that a combination of compounds of group A, the opioids and other substances which have a central action and can interact with opioid receptors and the effects of which can be antagonized by naloxone, or in particular substances which act via an opiate receptor, in particular the μ-receptor, and compounds of group B, which comprises muscarine antagonists and other substances which are known to be active in urinary incontinence and have a predominantly peripheral action, have an outstanding action on bladder function. These combinations already proved to be so active at very low doses—significantly beyond that expected—that it was possible to employ the combined active compounds in a low dose. As a result, in therapeutic use the side effects which otherwise occur at the higher dosages necessary decrease significantly, while the therapeutic action is retained in full by this combination of peripheral anti-muscarine effect acting predominantly directly on the bladder or bladder musculature and central opioid effect or μ-receptor effect.

[0012] The invention accordingly provides the use of an active compound combination of at least one of the compounds A and at least one of the compounds B, with compound A chosen from:

[0438] The invention also provides a medicament, preferably for treatment of an increased urge to urinate or urinary incontinence, comprising an active compound combination according to the invention and optionally suitable additives and/or auxiliary substances.

[0439] Suitable additives and/or auxiliary substances in the context of this invention are all the substances known to the expert from the prior art for achieving pharmaceutical formulations. The choice of these auxiliary substances and the amounts thereof to be employed depend on whether the medicament is to be administered orally, intravenously, intraperitoneally, intradermally, intramuscularly, intranasally, buccally or locally. Formulations in the form of tablets, chewable tablets, coated tablets, capsules, granules, drops, juices or syrups are suitable for oral administration, and solutions, suspensions, easily reconstitutable dry formulations and sprays are suitable for parenteral, topical and inhalatory administration. Suppositories for use in the rectum are a further possibility. The use in a depot in dissolved form, a carrier film or a patch, optionally with the addition of agents which promote penetration of the skin, are examples of suitable forms for percutaneous administration. Examples of auxiliary substances and additives for the oral administration forms are disintegrating agents, lubricants, binders, fillers, mold release agents, with appropriate solvents, flavorings, sugar, in particular carrier agents, diluents, dyestuffs, antioxidants, etc. Waxes and fatty acid esters, inter alia, can be used for suppositories and carrier substances, preservatives, suspension auxiliaries etc. can be used for compositions for parenteral administration. The amounts of active compound to be administered to patients vary as a function of the weight of the patient, the mode of administration and the severity of the disease. The compounds according to the invention can be released in a delayed manner from formulation forms for oral, rectal or percutaneous use. In the indication according to the invention, appropriate sustained release formulations, in particular in the form of a “once-daily” preparation which has to be taken only once a day, are particularly preferred.

[0440] Medicaments which comprise at least 0.05 to 90.0% of the active compound, in particular dosages with a low action, in order to avoid side effects or analgesic actions, are furthermore preferred. 0.1 to 5,000 mg/kg, in particular 1 to 500 mg/kg, preferably 2 to 250 mg/kg of body weight of at least one compound of the formula I are conventionally administered. However, administration of 0.01-5 mg/kg, preferably 0.03 to 2 mg/kg, in particular 0.05 to 1 mg/kg of body weight, is also likewise preferred and conventional.

[0441] Auxiliary substances can be, for example: water, ethanol, 2-propanol, glycerol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, glucose, fructose, lactose, sucrose, dextrose, molasses, starch, modified starch, gelatins, sorbitol, inositol, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, methylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, cellulose acetate, shellac, cetyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, paraffins, waxes, naturally occurring and synthetic rubbers, gum acacia, alginates, dextran, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, zinc stearate, glyceryl stearate, sodium lauryl sulfate, edible oils, sesame oil, coconut oil, groundnut oil, soya bean oil, lecithin, sodium lactate, polyoxyethylene and -propylene fatty acid esters, sorbitan fatty acid esters, sorbic acid, benzoic acid, citric acid, ascorbic acid, tannic acid, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium oxide, zinc oxide, silicon dioxide, titanium oxide, titanium dioxide, magnesium sulfate, zinc sulfate, calcium sulfate, potash, calcium phosphate, dicalcium phosphate, potassium bromide, potassium iodide, talc, kaolin, pectin, crospovidone, agar and bentonite.

[0442] The medicaments and pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention are prepared with the aid of agents, devices, methods and processes which are well-known in the prior art of pharmaceutical formulation, such as are described, for example, in “Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences”, ed. A. R. Gennaro, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa. (1985), in particular in part 8, chapter 76 to 93.

[0443] Thus, e.g., for a solid formulation, such as a tablet, the active compound of the medicament can be granulated with a pharmaceutical carrier, e.g., conventional tablet constituents, such as maize starch, lactose, sucrose, sorbitol, talc, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate or pharmaceutically acceptable gums, and pharmaceutical diluents, such as, e.g., water, in order to form a solid composition which comprises the active compound in homogeneous distribution. Homogeneous distribution is understood here as meaning that the active compound is distributed uniformly over the entire composition, so that this can be easily divided into unit dose forms, such as tablets, pills or capsules, with the same action. The solid composition is then divided into unit dose forms. The tablets or pills of the medicament according to the invention or of the compositions according to the invention can also be coated, or compounded in another manner, in order to provide a dose form with delayed release. Suitable coating compositions are, inter alia, polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with materials such as, e.g., shellac, cetyl alcohol and/or cellulose acetate.

[0444] Although the medicaments according to the invention show only a low degree of side effects, it may be of advantage, for example to avoid certain forms of dependency, also to use morphine antagonists, in particular naloxone, naltrexone and/or levallorphan, in addition to the combination of compounds A and B.

[0445] The invention also relates to a method for treatment of an increased urge to urinate or urinary incontinence, in which the active compound combination of compound A and compound B, in particular in a therapeutically active (in each case) dosage, is used.

[0446] The following examples are intended to explain the invention without the subject matter of the invention being limited thereto.

EXAMPLES Example 1

[0447] Test System of Cystometry on Anaesthetized Naïve Rats.

[0448] The cystometric investigation on naive female rats was carried out by the method of Kimura et al. (Kimura et al., 1996, Int. J. Urol. 3:218-227). The abdomen of anaesthetized, ventilated rats is opened up and the ureter is ligated. The urine is drained from the kidneys. A catheter is inserted into the bladder and fixed. Saline is infused into the bladder via this by means of an infusion pump, until the bladder shows rhythmic spontaneous activity in the form of contractions which can be recorded via a connected pressure transducer. After stable starting values are reached, the test substance is administered intravenously. An influence on bladder function manifests itself via suppression of the spontaneous contractions.

[0449] In the present example, compound A ((+)-(2R,3R)-1-dimethylamino-3-(3-methoxy-phenyl)-2-methyl-pentan-3-ol; hydrochloride) in the dosage of 0.1 mg/kg intravenously was combined with compound B (oxybutynin) in the dosage of 0.03 mg/kg intravenously and the action of this combination was compared with that of the individual substances. The individual substances and combination showed an inhibition of the rate of contractions (micturition events/min). The data are summarized in the following table. Compound Compound Compound A A B 0.1 mg/kg i.v. + Vehicle 0.1 mg/ 0.03 mg/ compound B control Substance kg i.v. kg i.v 0.3 mg/kg i.v. i.v. Inhibition of 21.7% 10.7% 42.5% 4.0% the rate of contractions compared with the pretest [% MPE]

[0450] A suppression of spontaneous contractions in the rats was measurable with all the substances and combinations listed here.

[0451] The combination of substances which was investigated shows a positive action on bladder regulation and is thus suitable for treatment of urinary incontinence.
